I must say I like what I hear for the ps3 fast play. Hopefully we get stat overlays as well in fast play...ps3 videos I am sure will be out sometime today.

Not every one will have both Vita and PS3 though.

That's true - I was speaking from my point of view. Vita only gamers will be fast-play only. I wouldn't begin to speculate on the users that will be 100% Vita, but I don't imagine the number (%) will be high. Again, not a big deal for me personally.

And yes the ball being larger has been said is by design... appears too small otherwise.

Yes, it's by design. According to Russell (and the community boys), having it at its normal size would make it very difficult to see. Personally, I'm inclined to disagree, but I haven't seen it for myself, so my mind would be subject to change based on actually seeing that in action.

Thanks for the confirmation, guys. I must have missed this tidbit. It kind of reminds be of the NES Baseball days - not a knock, just an observation.

I'm game development you always shoot for the lowest common denominator. I would much rather have someone say they think the ball is to big, rather them saying its to small. If it's to small and you can't bat or field correctly then you won't play the game.

Absolutely, which is why I finished the sentence by kind of saying that exact thing.

It looks to me as if the ball were bigger when it leaves the bat and goes back to normal size after being caught and thrown to another fielder. Am I wrong here? Not a game breaker for me but it looks a little odd.

I think someone on here said that the C logo was added to the backstop, but I'm not 100% sure.

Wait, you mean just on the Vita, right? I always hated the, if you will, "big ball" look. I mean, I won't be getting the Vita, but it won't look as big on PS3 right? haha

People in the know should correct me if I'm wrong, but this should only be for Vita... All the videos from PS3, the ball looked the same as before, which means no super-exaggerated magnification as in Vita.

Yea, I kind of figured that'd be the case, but anyhow, cool deal. Thanks for the response. Magnified ball or not, looks great on Vita.

You need it then so when you are job hunting you have something to keep yourself occupied while waiting in the lobby for your interview.

But if I don't get the Vita, I won't get fired for playing The Show all day at work. Man, sometimes I hate making responsible decisions.

Re: MLB 12 The Show PS Vita Gameplay

The PS3 version gives you the option for batter walk ups and HR celebration camera as options in fast play. There are also some other little automatic nuggets that happen in the PS3 version of fast play.

Sweet the batter walk ups was the thing I really wanted

Re: MLB 12 The Show Video - More PS Vita Gameplay

Isn't it a bit extreme to get rid of hr celebrations? I get it; ps vita gameplay is different and needs a quicker pace but there is nothing more anticlimactic to me than a hr that feels like a bouncer that got away and became a single. (presentation-wise)
Now, just talking from what I've seen. Not sure if it'll be an option. Can anybody confirm this?

The PS3 fastplay had homerun celebrations when the home team hit a homerun and then just went to the next batter when the visiting team sent one to the bleachers. So I guess that is likely what the vita will be like.
